Victims

The victims we know so well They shine in your eyes when they kiss and tell Strange places we never see But you're always there like a ghost in my dream And I keep on telling you "Please don't do the things you do" When you do those things, pull my puppet strings Have the strangest void for you We love and we never tell What places our hearts in the wishing well Love leads us into the stream And it's sink or swim like it's always been And I keep on loving you It's the only thing to do When the angel sings, there are greater things Can I give them all to you, oh Pull the strings of emotion Take a ride into unknown pleasure Feel like a child on a dark night Wishing there was some kind of heaven I could be warm with you smiling Hold out your hand for a while The victims, we know them so well So well The victims we know so well They shine in your eyes when they kiss and tell Strange places we never see But you're always there like a ghost in my dream And I keep on telling you "Please don't do the things you do" When you do those things, pull my puppet strings Have the strangest void for you, oh Show my heart some devotion Push aside those that whisper, "Never" Feel like a child on a dark night Wishing we could spend it together I could be warm with you smiling Hold out your hand for a while The victims we know them so well So well
